Anigozanthos rufus 'Backdraft'

Description

Long flowering evergreen grass-like plant with red flowers and grey strappy leaves to approximately 1-2' with flowers rising to about 3'. Allow plenty of air flow around the plant to help prevent Ink Disease ( a blackening of the leaf blade). Great for smaller gardens or border plant. Also a lovely container plant but should be grown as a pot plant in colder areas and moved indoors for the winter months. Hummingbirds love them!
